Gourmets gourmands sur Paris

01/03/2026: Excellent home-style cooking, and the staff are very pleasant. A lovely atmosphere, as always, to celebrate Lunar New Year.

19/02/2026: This is a very honest and authentic Vietnamese canteen (no more of the Chinese restaurant we used to frequent). They offer soups and stew-like dishes. A delicious and rather surprising beef curry, for which you'll want to skip the classic white rice, is served with water spinach sautéed with garlic, which was quite good, though perhaps a touch undercooked. Tradition is upheld: you can ask to have lunch on the terrace, even if it's very chilly, and we weren't the only ones (a Vietnamese woman with her enormous bowl of soup kept us company under that rare winter sun of February 2026). The beer selection is limited (no Shinga, the only one that really packs a punch in terms of hops). Aside from the somewhat restricted menu, which is very much in the canteen style (no real signature dish), everything is perfect.
